She doesn't even deserve my rating.

1.0 awfulSnide | September 23rd 16

Unapologetic in writing this shitty soundoff for this shitty album. Easily the worst in her discography, and a shame coming from a singer who is decently talented.

2.1 poorErwann S. STAFF | November 2nd 20

Most all-over-the-place album of hers. It's diverse, but it just goes everywhere without correctly nailing the genres she takes inspiration from. From the WUBWUBWUBs to the 2012 Guetta production, most songs here have badly aged, except for some tunes like "Pour It Up", where badass flow fights with a glacial beat.

2.0 poorBedex | November 16th 19

Supremely incoherent album, especially the run from 1-7 which goes all over the place, with stark contrast of genres and abrupt changes of atmosphere from one track to the next with no transition whatsoever. It often feels like a compilation of random songs, and it also often feels that they were trying to follow and ride on every ongoing trend at the time. Only the run from maybe 6-8 feels a bit coherent, remaining in the realm of dance/dubstep/electronica. 6 has quite a nice verse but a terrible chorus, and 8 is actually a cool emotional dubstep track but with an annoying end. 7 feels outdated but would actually be kind of nice maybe in a taxi ride at 3am from one party to the other to pump you up . The run from 9-14 (long album yeah) is thoroughly uninteresting (although it goes from RnB to dub, dubstep, a ballad etc.) apart from 10, a nice bouncy house track that's kinda jammy. The second half did feel superior to the first half of the album, where the only highlight was 4 which is a jam of female rap, really cool but a bit shortand lacking a conclusion. 3 is nice and interesting with a sorta ethnic atmosphere, but has unfortunate drums, odd sound samples, and an out-of-place contrib from Eminem. 2 is famous but not that good of a track really. Overall this is a bad album wit scarce good tracks, but not a terrible one. 1.95

3.5 greatblacklistedd | August 12th 17

Listen, this album is far from a lyrical or sonic masterpiece and its as pandering to top 40 trends as any Rihanna album to date. However, it is underrated. It was/is written off as a rush released cashgrab labeled so by the hive mentality tired of her yearly releases and being bombarded by her constant stream of radio singles on rotation. Unapologetic is, contrary to popular opinion, a cohesively sardonic and gloomy batch of tracks that all come from Rihanna then re-entering a relationship (either romantic or business wise) with Chris Brown (i.e. their unfortunately infectious collaboration on Nobody's Business). Shes unapologetically wrestling and wallowing in her bad decisions and its presented to the listener throughout the album. How anyone could say this is her least thoughtful album is beyond me when the likes of Talk That Talk exist. Unapologetic inarguably tells a story...just not the one you want to hear.
